About this apartment rental

This stunning central Edinburgh apartment is one of the city's most unique stays with unrivalled views of Edinburgh Castle on your own private South facing terrace.

The apartment is located in the heart of the city on Rose Street and ideal if you want to explore the city or relax in the sunshine all day on your very own large private terrace.

"This is THE place to stay in Edinburgh! It was newly remodeled and beyond comfortable with everything you could possibly need. This flat had killer views of Edinburgh castle and was literally a skip away from tons of great pubs and restaurants. I cannot wait to come back and if this fabulous place isn’t booked up, it will be my go to!" Julia - June 2021

"Absolutely loved our time at this property. The apartment is better than the pictures and is perfectly located. The living area is modern and allows you chill when you want a break from seeing the city. Lloyd made us feel welcome and we knew he was only a message away. Definitely looking at booking this place again the next time we visit Edinburgh" Thomas - July 2021

What a fantastic stay in Edinburgh. The place is perfectly located and makes it easy to get around the city. Apartment is comfy & cozy on a cold winters night - we so enjoyed the view of the castle cozied up by the fireplace. Host was incredibly responsive to our needs. Definitely recommend.

This listing is exactly as pictured on the site. The apartment is in a very cool part of old-town, a bit outside the main tourist areas to avoid the crowds, but close enough to everything. We found the local pubs and restaurants to be the best in the city. The deck is amazing, and the castle views can't be beat! It is on the third floor up the stairs, but that is typical for these apartments and was not an issue for us. The views are worth it! Beds were very comfortable and we slept very well. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to Edinburgh!

We are still gushing about how wonderful our stay was. Unforgettable location, top-notch hosts, and comfortable accommodations. The view is incredible and the flat is surprisingly quiet despite the location. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would!

I cannot go on enough about this gem of an apartment. Rose Street itself is such a treat, but to have it as your base is a dream! The apartment itself was super clean, well appointed and quaint. We did not want to leave. Not gonna lie…the stairs to the apartment were a challenge for my old body, but very much worth it!!!

The property is in a great location. You can walk to so many places. The outside rooftop space with a view of the castle was the best.
